Chapter 88 Selling Fireworks
A string of firecrackers costs two coins, an antique firecracker costs one coin, and other firecrackers for children to play with cost one coin for a small box.
Fireworks come in different types: a small box of the ones for children cost three coins, the long ones cost twelve coins each, and large fireworks cost eighty coins each. She didn't dare to ask for more, so she ordered fifty.
The total value of these goods is 5,000 virtual coins, which can be collected in three days.
It just so happens that the last big market of the year is in five days, and I will definitely make some money by selling this batch of goods then.
Shen Yi knew that she had made a batch of fireworks and firecrackers, and he became very nervous. He frowned for a long time before saying, "I'll take some to Dahe Town first, and visit Uncle Qi by the way."
Su Tai naturally had no objection.
After getting the fireworks, Shen Yi immediately took them to Dahe Town. Before leaving, he told Su Tai, "I may not be able to come back in time tonight, but I will definitely accompany you to Moshi Town to sell fireworks tomorrow. Wait for me."
"Okay! You worry a little." Su Tai reluctantly saw Shen Yi out and closed the two doors only after seeing him go far away.
Before the courtyard wall was raised, she didn’t dare to stay at home. Now, she wouldn’t be afraid even if Shen Yi didn’t come back for a year or two.
When Shen Yi arrived at Dahe Town with a truckload of fireworks and firecrackers, the streets were deserted and there was not even a dog to be seen.
He could only go to the dyeing workshop to find Uncle Qi.
Uncle Qi was very happy to see him coming.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries before Shen Yi mentioned adopting a puppy.
Uncle Qi didn't waste any time and led him directly to the backyard of the dyeing workshop. "This time Xiao Hei was very helpful and gave birth to three puppies. Unfortunately, the dyeing workshop can't afford to raise so many puppies. The boss also said that he would give the puppies away after they are weaned. I was asking around to see who wants to raise a dog, and I didn't expect you to come!
There are three of them now, you can pick any one you want. Don’t you have sheep at home? Just give the dog some goat milk, it will be easy to keep alive.”
He knew that Shen Yi's family was well-off, so he felt at ease leaving the dog to Shen Yi.
Shen Yi looked at the three little puppies with joy in his eyes, and said to Uncle Qi: "Give them all to me, otherwise it would be too pitiful to separate one of them."
Uncle Qi was even happier.
After resolving his concern, he asked Shen Yi about the purpose of coming to the town.
Shen Yi immediately took him to see the fireworks and firecrackers, "I plan to sell them, do you think they can be sold?"
Uncle Qi's eyes widened when he saw the things, and he spoke incoherently, "You, you, you...where did you get this from? Our boss originally wanted to sell some fireworks and firecrackers at the end of the year, but he didn't expect that the fireworks and firecrackers workshop in the county had closed down a long time ago, and no one has taken over."
"Why?" Shen Yi looked confused. Logically speaking, this thing should make a lot of money.
Uncle Qi slapped his thigh and sighed, "It's all because of the explosion. Plus, everyone has just recovered and is focusing on food. Who has the guts to take risks at this time? If you want to sell it, you'll definitely have no trouble selling it, but you have to let everyone take a look, otherwise who would dare to buy it?"
Shen Yi made a prompt decision and asked Uncle Qi for help to get some drinks.
So it was deserted, but suddenly there were more people peeking around on the main street of Dahe Town.
Shen Yi was straightforward and first set off a long string of firecrackers for everyone. This kind of firecracker cost ten virtual coins each and was usually used at weddings and business openings. Su Tai only bought a few.
As the firecrackers sounded, people from all over the streets came out.
Everyone stopped for a long time, and only dared to go forward and surround Shen Yi's donkey cart until the firecrackers were finished.
Shen Yi hurriedly said, "Fireworks and firecrackers, don't miss them if you pass by. I will light a firework for everyone now."
As the fireworks bloomed in the sky, everyone looked up, stretched their necks, and looked amazed.
After one firework was set off, everyone was still not satisfied.
Shen Yi took out the fireworks with a smile, "One of these fireworks is fifty cents. If you like them, you can buy some to keep for the New Year, just for the sake of festivity. Small strings of firecrackers and crackers are ten cents each."
The price was much lower than everyone expected, and for a moment Shen Yi's donkey cart was almost captured by people who were trying to grab firecrackers.
As soon as Manager Li of the Jixiang Inn in the town squeezed in, he found that the firecrackers on the stall were gone. Only some fireworks and square boxes that he had never seen before were left. He was stunned, "Gone?"
Shen Yi smiled sheepishly, "Firecrackers and firecrackers are so popular, would you like to see some fireworks? We have safe little fireworks here, the same kind I just set off."
Shopkeeper Li was very depressed. "I don't like those fireworks. Do you have anything better?"
He just wanted to buy some firecrackers.
Shen Yi quickly brought out the big fireworks, "You can take a look at this, this kind of fireworks can be set off in high school, lighting up the night sky, and there are many styles, absolutely beautiful, but it is more expensive."
"How much?" Shopkeeper Li stared at the fireworks.
In front of everyone, Shen Yi said with a red face and a calm heart, "One tael of silver."
"Hiss!" There were bursts of gasps all around.
A woman frowned and said, "Who is so wasteful as to spend a few taels of silver to buy fireworks that can't be eaten or drunk? They will be gone after one set off!"
"Auntie, you can't say that! Fireworks are not ordinary things. One tael of silver is still too little. The common large fireworks in the past cost at least two taels of silver, and they could only go off ten times, which cost two hundred coins each time! Mine can go off twenty times in a row, and it only costs one tael of silver." Shen Yi shouted loudly.
When Manager Li heard this, he was indeed tempted, but he was still a little hesitant, "What if there are not twenty shots?"
Shen Yi patted his chest and said, "When you set off the fireworks, ask the neighbors to count. If there are less than 20 rings, I will return the money to you. I have a good relationship with Uncle Qi from the dyeing workshop. He knows me and will definitely not default on the debt."
Manager Li knew Uncle Qi, the master of the dyeing workshop. So he spent two taels of silver to buy two fireworks. "Today is my wife's birthday, so I will set off one for everyone tonight. If you have time, come to the Jixiang Inn tonight. I will treat everyone to fireworks!"
"Good! Shopkeeper Li is so generous!"
Shen Yi also laughed and said, "Then I will stay at the Jixiang Inn tonight and watch the fireworks with everyone."
"What? You haven't seen it yourself?" Shopkeeper Li was instantly at a loss.
Shen Yi smiled awkwardly, touched his nose, and muttered, "Can I just play with something worth one tael of silver?"
The crowd roared with laughter.
Another child was clamoring for the small firecrackers that came in a box. This time, Shen Yi generously set off a few for everyone and reminded them, "Everyone, be careful when setting off fireworks and firecrackers. Stay away. Children, don't throw them at people, understand?"
"Got it!" Several children got their own firecrackers and ran away happily in groups.
As it gradually got dark, Shen Yi found that there were not many things left of what he had brought with him, so he went directly to the Jixiang Inn and booked a room.
At this time, there were many diners sitting in the lobby, as well as people who were attracted by the fireworks. The huge crowd was like watching a big show, and it was very lively.
When Shopkeeper Li saw that it was completely dark, he immediately shouted, "Let's set off the fireworks! Everyone, come out and watch the fireworks!"
